i got a dodge neon 1999 from J D Byrider. not a car i picked but what i could supposedly afford by their caculations i needed a car. so i took it. that was earlier in the week. that friday i was going to visit my mother. the car broke down on exit 263. so i left it and they towed it in. come to find out it needed a motor. so i had to pay 100.00 because the car still had so called warranty on it.

i got it back maybe 2 weeks later or longer. i cant remember but i had to thumb a ride but just purchased what suppose to be a dependable car and still make the payments. so eventually i got the car back and which supposedly had a new motor in it. but two days later i started having the same problems out of the car. i called and called and they just kept putting me off. so i took the car to them and the service manager who i remember his first name was lee drove the car and said he didnt see a problem with it.

later on in the same week the car put me down in the road on the parkway here in huntsville alabama one of the busiest streets here. so i had to get a tow truck take it to a car shop found out it didnt get a new motor. they patched it up and gave it back to me. so i had to still pay the payments and also fix the problem which cost me over 1300.00 dollars to fix plus the labor at the auto shop. after they took time and fixed it i had no problems out of it and i eventually paid for it. but this company is a real rip off.

i paid twice the book value and then had to fix the car. that was just so unfair to me. if i can get my money back please let me know how

I really don't want to sound harsh here but I think had you taken the car back to the dealer after you had a second opinion that the motor hadn't infact been changed out as they claimed and demaded either 1 they do the job they said they did in the first place or 2 let you out of your contract, but instead you went and had it repaired at another shop which they aren't going to pay for or refund your money for.

I know this company is nothing more then loan sharks for those of us who can't get financing any other way, however as I have stated in my own ripoffreport, we as adults have to stand up and take responsibility for our own actions, I too had to put a new engine in my car I purchased from there, granted it happened long after the purchase but we choose a shop we knew had a great reputation and had no further problems until about 200,000 miles.

So I guess what I am saying is at this point I doubt there is anything you can do unless you have a very good lemon law in your state but that is the only recourse I can see that you would have and also you need to take responsibility for not taking it back to them and demanding they fix it the right way and not charge you another 100 deductible and you probably would have gotten their attention, but you see they take advantage of those of us who allow them too and honestly you really don't have anyone to blame at the end of the day other then yourself for allowing it to happen in the first place., sorry.
